...a time when Web sites were characterized by multicolor walls of cheerfully misspelled text, uselessly animated buttons, blinking banner links, spasmodic mouseover animations and obscure Web rings! Case in point: Men Without Hats' site. Despite the simplistic design, I actually love this site. It was clearly made without a designer [or any sense of design principles] by the hatless dudes themselves, who are just bubbling over with an infectious enthusiasm for the music. That's one of the things I love best about this band: From their music videos and concert vids, it's obvious that they're having so much fun, grinning and singing and flailing wildly.

Anyway, from what I can unearth, Men Without Hats has a NEW ALBUM OUT, No Hats Beyond This Point, marking a return to their synth pop roots after a few decades away. I'm going to get it when I'm not hemorrhaging money in the direction of dolls and doll supplies.

Please excuse me. I need to drool over Ivan Doroschuk listen to more MWH music vids now.

EDIT: Okay, it's not new. It came out in 2004. Well, it's new to me.

Happy eye-hurting website.
And you're not the only one to recently go on a MWH kick, just recently I was walking around with 'Pop goes the world' in my head for days.

Hey, you write for sites - think you can score an interview???

OK...I can dream.
